    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Report. In the interests of this House and other issues that have been raised, there is a Committee that concerns itself with this and it needs to pick up some of these recommendations going into the future. This will ensure that the process of EALA election becomes less tedious within the law. I have heard from my colleagues from the Minority Side, the Azimio la Umoja- One Kenya Alliance. I think the one who spoke just left the Chamber, but he alleges that at some point, Members of Kenya Kwanza will be told who to vote for. I have a simple question because when you look at this Report; which is the worst form of democracy and corruption if you bring your own daughter or son to be elected to EALA? Ms. Winnie Odinga wants to be an EALA Member simply because of her second name, just like Hon. Kalonzo Musyoka’s son. The names are here. They should stop lecturing us about democracy when they practice the worst form of democracy and corruption. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if it comes to voting, I will not allow cronyism and nepotism to go through. That is not the spirit of this Republic. If you look at Kenya Kwanza’s list, it only has ‘hustlers’, people who come from bottom-up. Those are the ones we have nominated to go to EALA to represent this country. I ask the Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Alliance to stop peddling lies to Kenyans that they are democratic; they are not. They are corrupt and practice nepotism and cronyism. We shall not allow that. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
